Xiaomi Mi TV owners in India will now get access to curated movie and TV series collections as a part of the company’s PatchWall interface, a company executive revealed earlier today. The “Collections” as the new feature is called will appear right below “Recent Added” content. The “Collections” feature comes just days after Xiaomi added Sony LIV streaming service to its PatchWall interface and introduced the new Kids Mode. As people are spending more time than ever in front of their televisions, the “Collections” as well as other recently launched features will certainly be appreciated by Mi TV users in the country.

It is unclear right now whether Collections will be available to all Mi TV devices that include PatchWall or just the ones running on PatchWall 3.0.

To recall, Xiaomi earlier week added Sony LIV content to its PatchWall interface, so if you are a subscriber to Sony LIV, you will find content from the service integrated right in Xiaomi’s TV interface.

Xiaomi had earlier also launched Kids Mode as a part of PatchWall interface. In the launch announcement, the company noted Kids Mode includes parental lock, safe universal search, free educational content, smart curation, and pop-out banner collections. So, in a way, collections first showed up in Kids Mode.
